Leftists maintain grip on PBS (emphasis on the BS)

Kenneth Tomlinson has resigned from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting board of directors, the board announced Thursday.

The board has been reviewing a report by CPB Inspector General Kenneth Konz -- undertaken following media coverage of Tomlinson's attempts to add more conservative programming to public broadcasting, the trade magazine Broadcasting & Cable reported. Konz recently briefed key Capitol Hill staffers on his investigation.

The board said Thursday it was in the best interests of CPB that Tomlinson no longer remain on the board....

Tomlinson has been criticized for adding conservative programming to public broadcasting to balance what he saw as liberal bias, and for hiring an outside consultant to gauge bias in shows, particularly "Now with Bill Moyers."

In other words they managed to oust the guy in charge of keeping them from abusing the taxpayers' money they've been squandering on Leftist propaganda. Time to defund the entire silly joke.
